Haven is a VR & MR platform closing the mental health gap - from anxiety reduction to peak performance created by expert guides in beautiful environments.

About me

I am Co-Founder & CCO of Haven Studios, an early-stage platform currently seeking investment from VCs and angels. We are closing the global mental health gap using immersive, personalisable, effective brain training and support created by expert guides.

I have spent the past seven years as Director of UN Women UK - the UK office for the United Nations equality agency. There, I won an Innovate UK Women in Innovation award for my virtual reality tool to train police, security guards, bar staff and communities to prevent sexual violence and harassment. My passion is solving society's trickiest problems using emerging technology.

I am also a prior wellness founder, with a studio in London, and a former McKinsey & Company consultant. I'm an expert in gender equality, climate justice and sustainability.

I'm also a former tour guide, cold water swimmer, medieval historian and popular neuroscience enthusiast, so reach out to chat about any of these interests!
